Just hanging out on the beach this day. I was enamored with the amount of blue, and various hues presented to me, as I looked out into the ocean. This brilliant, wide streak of sparkling sun only added to the fascination. I was also happy that the signature cargo ships came into the scene. Catalina Island, and Island Freeman also visible in the image.
Huge, and breathtaking waves were crashing and spilling over the rock formations on this full moon night in Dana Point. I wasn't entirely pleased with the color composition, or lighting of the capture, and tossed it from my portfolio. However, I'm so in love with the waves, the texture, and feeling of awe that they created in me, that I decided to bring it back to life, by turning it into a black and white abstract creation.
